Revolutionary Georgi Muchitanov-Kasapcheto

Georgi K. Muchitanov, known as Kasapcheto or Vlasheto, was a Bulgarian revolutionary of Vlach origin and a voivode of the Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organisation.

He was born in 1882 in Krushevo, now in North Macedonia but then part of the Ottoman Empire. Muchitanov was ethnically Vlach. He completed the fourth class at the Romanian school in Sofia and organised an Aromanian committee for armed struggle in Macedonia.

During the Ilinden-Preobrazhenie Uprising in 1903, he served in Gyorche Petrov's detachment. After the uprising he became an independent voivode and led an IMARO detachment in various districts, including Ber, Negush and Enidzhe Vardar.

In the summer of 1907 Muchitanov, or Kasapcheto from Mesimer, met Greek armed band members who attempted to win him over to the Greek side, but they were captured and hanged several days later.

After the Young Turk Revolution in July 1908, Muchitanov set about restoring IMARO's activity in the Bitola district. In 1909 he participated in the killing of Jovo Jovanović, a former IMARO activist who had placed himself at the Turkish authorities' service.

In 1910 Muchitanov participated in the activities of the Bulgarian People's Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organisation.

Georgi Muchitanov's tragic death came on 2 August 1911, when he died alongside the voivodes Apostol Petkov and Vasil Pufkata in a battle near the village of Krushari in the Enidzhe Vardar district.
